Effect of Pressure on Magnetic Properties of $(NH_3OH)_2CoF_4$ Fluoro-Metal Complex

Effect of pressure on magnetic properties of a bulk fluoro-metal complex $(NH_3OH)_2MF_4$ was studied. Magnetization measurements suggest that a ferromagnetic transition at $T_{C1}$ = 47 K is followed by a ferrimagnetic one at $T_{C2}$ = 3 K. Both transition temperatures are pressure dependent with the pressure coefficients $dT_{C1}$/ dp = - 2.6 K/GPa and $dT_{C2}$/ dp = 0.26 K/GPa. The opposite sign of the coefficients is an additional indication of a different nature (ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic) of these two transitions. The effect of pressure on low field magnetization and exchange bias phenomena is small but still visible.
